Andrew, I think that the following is more straightforward fix and
should be folded in to the patch which has introduced vmstat_refresh.

Subject: [PATCH] mmotm: mm-proc-sys-vm-stat_refresh-to-force-vmstat-update-fix

Arnd has reported:
In randconfig builds with sysfs, procfs and numa all disabled,
but SMP enabled, we now get a link error in the newly introduced
vmstat_refresh function:

mm/built-in.o: In function `vmstat_refresh':
:(.text+0x15c78): undefined reference to `vmstat_text'

vmstat_refresh is proc_fs specific so there is no reason to define it
when !CONFIG_PROC_FS.

I already had this:

From: Christoph Lameter <cl@linux.com>
Subject: Do not build vmstat_refresh if there is no procfs support

It makes no sense to build functionality into the kernel that
cannot be used and causes build issues.

But this is broken:

Sorry for my noise, sorry for my silence, thanks to Arnd and everyone
for chipping in.  But now I try it, I find that even Michal's is not
quite right: if you build without CONFIG_PROC_FS, then it gives you
mm/vmstat.c:1381:13: warning: `refresh_vm_stats' defined but not used [-Wunused-function]
(well, that was on a tree with different line numbering).
So here's my attempt...
